best night for a while

[Kimboman]

Just come in from one of the best nights viewing for a while

Observed the moon until the trees intervened then Saturn was visible I used my Celestron 102 gt refractor and my Meade ETX 90 the views of Saturn were great and could see at least one moon.

By this time Saturn was lured into the trees But Jupiter was now well placed The views of Jupiter were stunning I could see two cloud belts and the moons were pinprick sharp.

The Celestron 102 GT is a recent aquasistion and I am well pleased with its performance.

These two telescopes are great for get and go my poor 6se is still in its box but now the sky is once again getting more interesting it will soon be out the sky at the moment is crystal clear

I too saw Jupiter last night best view in ages saw a shadow of a moon going across pity I didn't use a dew strip.
